For a better understanding of the following instructions, we recommend that you first read the section
on assembly in Chapter 4.1.
1.
Make sure that the luff extrusions are straight and placed on a flat surface.
2.
Unfasten the lower bearing assembly as shown in 17.5, 1, 2 and 3.
3.
Take the spacer bush off by pressing the stay out of the longitudinal slot.
(Only applies to Furlex 200 S & 300 S without rigging screw.)
4.
Unfasten the terminal part (or Furlex rigging screw)
from the socket as shown in 17.5.4.
5.
Carefully slide the lower bearing assembly off the luff
extrusion.
6.a 200 S & 300 S: Push out the locking pin at the lower
end of the 1000 mm (39 3/8”) luff extrusion.
6.b. 400 S & 500 S: Push the wire into the luff extrusion
system until the end of the wire is approx. 50 mm (2”)
inside the 1000 mm (39 3/8”) extrusion. Knock out the bushes at the lower end of the 1000 mm
(39 3/8”) luff extrusion. See Fig: 17.7.a.
7.
Hold the luff extrusion system firmly and pull the upper end terminal. This will bring the rod
forestay, joining sleeves and distance tubes out together, enabling the extrusions to be separated.
If this method does not work due to corrosion or damage, the luff extrusion system connectors
can be drilled out. Use a Ø 6 mm (15/64”) drill bit for the 200 S and a Ø 8 mm (10/32”) bit for
the 300 S, 400 S och 500 S.

Navtec -12/200 S, -22, -30, -40 and Riggarna -40, -48:
The guard cannot be removed from the system
by pushing it over the top eye terminal unless the eye part of the terminal is removed first.
Navatec -48, Riggarna -22 mm:
The internal flange at the top edge of the guard needs to be filed down.
Alternatively, the guard can be removed from below when dismantling the sail feeder and removing
the lower bearing assembly and halyard swivel.
